Player tip, for more historical long play set world volatility to none. If playing Germany avoid Sea Lion, otherwise Overlord wouldn’t make much sense. Not balanced at all, but very historical, so expect a tough go. Most events are for the ai, so as a player, play historical dates for best accuracy.

New Features in 2.1!

• Adjusted Germany playeraistance from 0:Normal to 3:Aggressive
• Adjusted several event lines regarding Italian playeraistance, so they do not conquest France before Germany does on DW if allied.
• Range Value of all WWII aircraft reviewed and corrected.
• AI does a much better job at building combined arms forces, no more engineer hordes or special forces hordes.
• Dozens of unit balance tweaks.
• Rework of all Special Forces and advanced training units, see changelog for details.
• Further tweaking of Italy so they are not conquering all of Europe before ’39.
• China’s militia force was greatly increased to keep Japan from overrunning unrealistically.
• Bolstered several invasion events so that they are more successful.
• Added several more late war German Field Marshalls and Army Generals.

12. Once the game finally opens, save it right away. Shut down SRU completely, restart and select your favorite 1936 sandbox country. You can check to be sure you have it all installed correctly if you open up one of the major countries after game start and look at their Land Tab > Facilities > Industrial Goods, if there is an Industrial Goods facility being built, you have everything installed correctly.
13. Enjoy and feel free to post any fixes or future requests.


1. A fresh reinstall of the base SRU game. The more players you have the more likely that someone has forgotten about some old file they updated or replaced. Even if one file is off there will be a problem.
2. Unsubscribe and Resubscribe to the Unit Overhaul Mod, double check to see if the attached changelog description version matches the latest version of the mod.
3. Make sure ALL files go where they need to go (as detailed above) and that an overwrite prompt was given.
